MY TEMBOMBOM WORLD

My name is Elyas. My full name is Elyas bin Muhammad Junaidi. I was born on 25th December 2008 morning at Southmead Hospital, Bristol.

Abah told me, when they picking a name, Mama wants a short and nice name and possible a noble man in Islam history or prophets . They took a long time to decide which name because they like different names. Accidently both of them like ‘Ilyas’ when mama sang a Raihan song ‘25 Rasul’ but change the spelling to ‘Elyas’. Mama said ‘Elyas’ mean “My God is the Lord” (taken from Elijah in hebrew).

My hobby is sleeping and sucking dummy. I cry when I feel hungry or sleepy or when my nappy wet. But sometimes I cry just for a cuddle. I love playing with Mama and Abah. Although Abah is busy with his study and work, but when he at home he will play with me and Mama will leave me to sleep with Abah while she’s doing some houseworks.

Mama said I was 12 days overdue. I like to stay inside Mama’s tummy because it’s warm and I can eat a lot delicious foods without I need to struggle and it  felt very comfortable. Now, eventhough I already outside Mama’s tummy, I think the safest and warmest place is in  Mama’s arms. I love when Mama hold me tight and sing a zikir to me everytime  I want to sleep.

At this moment, I just drink Mama’s milk. Mama’s milk taste delicious and I drink a lots of milk so I can be big and healthy.
